The way  test_generic_complex_eigenvalues  works is still mysterious
to me (I usually don't do things this way) so that's why I don't want
to say too much about how to use it. When I send the data file in
like this at the command line:
./test_generic_complex_eigenvalues <
test_generic_complex_eigenvalues.dat
then it seems to work, and for some reason stops without control-c.
When I copy the matrices from the data file with the mouse and then
paste them into command line prompt it works the 1st time, but
maybe not the second.

To me the important thing is that the tests pass, so we are off to
a good start!
